A single sermon, of considerable power, The Year that King Ahaz died,' (Rivingtons,) is by Professor Claughton, and puts very nicely the social and political, and therefore the religious, lesson to be drawn from the death of the Emperor Nicholas.

A set of 'Practical Sermons,' published by Masters, on the Old Testament Saints, we can speak of with entire approval. The sermons on Scripture characters have, and very undeservedly, been too much lost sight of.

A series of 'Papers and Sermons on the War,' (Rivingtons,) is in course. of publication. 'A Manual of Prayers for the Wounded'-'Sermon to the Wounded''Sermon to the Dying '—' Sermon to those at Home,' are before us, and we can speak highly of them. With all the complaints which are urged, and too often, we believe, for selfish and party purposes, our conviction is that no British, or any other Christian, army ever went upon active service so amply provided with temporal and spiritual appliances as that now serving in the Crimea; and therefore no war has been conducted under auspices so hopeful.
